Top 3YO's return this Saturday in the Jim Dandy and Sunday in the Haskell Invitational. Saturday's Jim Dandy brings Belmont Stakes winner Creator, 2nd place Belmont Stakes finisher Destin and Mohaymen together again for the first time since the Kentucky Derby. In the Haskell the stage is set for a rematch between the top 3 Kentucky Derby finisher's...Nyquist, Exaggerator and Gun Runner. What a great lineup. Here's the entries and PP's for the Jim Dandy...will post The official entries and pp's for the Haskell when they are drawn tomorrow. TJ

Here's the results for the Jim Dandy:Laoban...Saratoga at its finest, a maiden and the longest shot in the field wires them.Governor Malibu...a hard fought 2nd.Destin...finished 3rd.Mohaymen...didn't grow an inch since the Derby, looked terrible, broke slowly and never threatened.

Haha. Not much to say except I had the 2nd and 3rd place horses. Mohaymen's peers have caught up to him - I guess? I'll never understand how a horse looks so much better than others for a couple races in the winter/early spring, and so lackluster later in the year.

Here's the results for the Haskell:Exaggerator...A Preakness replay...caught his track and won with ease!!American Freedom...also loves it wet ran a good 2ndSunny Ridge...a closing 3rdNyquist...a dismal 4th.

It's interesting some of the articles stating that Exaggerator needs to have his wet track and have everything go his way... when I totally agree with you that Nyqvist also needs to have things his way. (*side note - one horse that doesn't need it his way is Flintshire - a man among boys). I was also disappointed in Gun Runner - apparently he didn't like the track. I am really excited for the Travers. If it rains my money is on the mud-loving bay Curlin colt.
